In an interview with Hindustan Times, she said that the year 2020 absolutely changed the game and turned it upside down. Yami added that no matter what everyone thought before 2020, every filmmaker and actor want their films to get released in theatres but, in the past year and a half, OTT platforms have come as a huge savior, to begin with, for both producers and financers and actors, too. 

She added that the attitude around what qualifies as a success also seems to have undergone a drastic change due to a boom in OTT content. Yami said that since box office collections are no longer the parameter and it’s the content and actor’s performance that has taken the spotlight and how well the movie connects to the audience. She further said that the boom in OTT content is opening new doors and is giving opportunities to various new actors and directors.
